You guys I think are missing the point or, I have some density .
( which is possible )
Either way let's try this example as it is real EZ to repeat what we have been told for a forever about drive train loss.
Lets take the 100 Hp engine , add a turbo and dial in 200 HP.
The HP / TQ will rise to 200 but the RPM will be the same in this scenario .
The only added drag will be the exhaust pushing the spool, is that going to eat 10 HP?
If it is , it is not going to consume the 10 HP under all conditions .
So it would not be a strict rule ( the loss)
Just thinking here chewing the cudd .
